RoMR, March Sl.-The following /,
the text Of a letter OF Cardinal Man
ming, regarding the Knights Of Labor
TO q prominent divine OF that city:
LONDON, March IL. 1887.
ArehBishop Of he Hosss Of Wesfmia.
Eter MY DRAR loRD: II have read
with great pleasure Cardinal Gibbons
document in relation 30 the Knights Of
Labor. The Holy See will, am sure.
be convinced by his exposition Of the
state OF the new world. i hope 10 will
open Q new field Of thought and action.
Il passes understanding thar 0ficious
persons should be listened 20 rather
than church officers. Sarely the Epia-
eopal ofiicers Of the whole world is the
most powerful and direct instrument IN
the hands Of the Holy See for gather
ing correct local knowledge and enfOrc-
ing lie decisions. Who can know the
temper Of America, England or Ireland
as they Who have = hnger upon the
palse Of the people } Hitherto the
world has been governed BY dynasties.
HencefeFth the Holy See will have 10
deal with the people, and IL has Bishops
in close and personal contact With the
people, and the more clearly and fully
this 10 perceived, the stronger Rome
will be. Never al any time has the
Episcopal authorities been 50 detached
from civic power and united IN itself,
and 50 we'll able 10 see, realize and
Bse its powers. A failure 70 see and use
these powers will breed much trouble
and mischief. Ny thanks are due to
the Cardinal for letting me share in the
argument. II can dnd a copy Of my
Extraordinarily and Rights Of La
bor"-I will send 10 to him. II will,
think, Qaalify me for kniRhtho0d In the
